Sound Soldier is the second studio album by Canadian singer-songwriter Skye Sweetnam. The album was released in Canada on October 30, 2007, and on February 14, 2008, in Japan with an exclusive song "Girl Like Me". The first single off the album is "Human", produced by the Matrix.
AllMusic felt that the "uncongealed" album does not hold together as one musical statement. The various song genres are "scattershot", displaying a wide range of influences such as teen pop, industrial metal, techno, pop rock, ska, pop punk and electronic music.[1] This album was never released onto streaming platforms in the United States as the album was exclusive to Canada and Japan. In a recent Youtube live, Skye said that Sound Soldier was released when labels weren’t thinking about streaming services heavily and that’s a part of why it isn’t on worldwide streaming. According to an Interview with Skye and Matt Drake, lead guitarist in her band Sumo Cyco, Sound Soldier didn’t sell as well as the label wanted it to which led to Skye's career with Capitol to remain at a standstill. The commercial sales of this album led to Capitol Records not promoting Skye's career nearly as heavily as they did during her "Noise From The Basement" album rollout. After this standstill Skye went on to legally get out of her contract with Captiol Records because they were holding her career back. After Skye was free from her contract, she went on to form the band "Sumo Cyco" with her longterm guitarist Matt Drake. In another interview, Skye said that she asked Matt what he was doing when she was out of her contract and asked to start the band in which she leads in. This album was a sonic transition for Skye vocally and instrumentally and it was a good way to introduce her new sound in the band "Sumo Cyco" because heavier rock elements were more prevalent in this album.
